8 New Atlantis° Concept Ocean Cities will be explored
Counteracting human trafficking
Human trafficking generates likely more than $150 billion per year.
ALCYDON New Atlantis(TM) will be economically self-sufficient and provide an answer to gruesome human trafficking. A reprehensible business with a turnover the size of that of a small state. A conservative estimate shows that human trafficking generates approximately $150 billion annually. A figure that in reality is likely many times that amount. Essentially, it's a loss for the economies where the refugees originate, as they waste their scarce resources. Furthermore, lured by the rosy promises of scrupulous traffickers, they risk losing their own lives in the process.
The New Atlantis(TM) high-tech environments deployed at strategic locations will provide a humane and responsible answer to social problems and dissatisfaction arising from current economic and, later on, climate migration patterns.
The New Atlantis(TM) cities will act as safe havens and form a micro-economic fabric. Refugees will be able to find training, medical care, and employment there. People will be able to recharge and provide a new foundation for rebuilding or reorganizing their lives with help from ALCYDON.
To be continued.
